NCAR HCR radar time series data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/647.001

Summary
HIAPER Cloud Radar (HCR) raw I/Q time series data collected during the MEOW
(Make Everything Operate Well) project. During MEOW HCR was operated on the
ground in the GV pod. It was located in the parking lot of the Foothills Lab 1
building of the NCAR campus in Boulder, Colorado, USA. The testing took place
from May 10 to June 27, 2024 and consisted of 11 Intensive Operation Periods
(IOPs). Time series data is very large (~11 GB per file). Please request less
than 2 minutes of data per order.
